21238 (2025). Francisco Hernandez to the Minister of Education

21238 (2025). Francisco Hernandez to the Minister of Education: On how many occasions, if any, broken down by date and title of email or document received, have staff employed in the Minister's office received emails or official Government documents provided to them in their capacity as employees in email accounts that weren't provided to them by Ministerial Services, Parliamentary Services or any other Public sector provider?

Hon Erica Stanford: I am advised that it is not general practice for my staff to send or forward emails from a parliamentary email to a personal email address. A small number of emails have been sent from parliamentary to personal addresses by my staff for a range of reasons. For example, sending personal HR related documents (e.g. contracts and employment matters), reviewing a draft PR whilst abroad on annual leave or in administrative error. I am advised that none of these emails contained any official Government documents or material with a sensitive classification.
